    Naval Action Voice commands!

    That would be really great if you can get it to work. As Ive stated in the first post Im putting the project on hold for a month or so,new job, no pc to play the game and test it. (Im on a Pentium 4, 1gb Ram machine for now)

    If you manage to make this a reliable feature please share it. Ill put it with the other downloads.

     

    I see a few issues tho. Every ship is different, then there is the wood type and upgrades to take into account. You might be better off making a tutorial on how to make these commands so that people can do it for their ship.

    Also. When you lose crew the performance will take a hit and make this whole thing faulter. It really is an odd one. Best of luck anyway :)

    hi, thanks. After some replies,I see now there are some issues, that may be too large hinder to achieve,stable timing :)   Ill give it some days of final thoughts regarding using speed as a factor in calculating timing, but at present it seemes not reliable to achieve.

     

    I'll probably glue 2 strips,showing yard positions and their keyboard keys controls and glue one at left and one at right side of my screen border for the 2 possible turn directions.

    hi.

    Im using voice attack myself (due to injury).

     

    So fare Ive managed to control total 180 degrees turn using manual sailing, changeing yards each 45 degrees turn for a Naval brig.

     

    This is a save of 10 seconds thowards an autoskipper for a 180deg turn ,start wind from NE,turning away from wind (left :)  and startspeed 5knots (max sails up).

     

    Im setting the QE and ZC by measuring full time and half time it takes to set positons of yards which is 5 seconds from 0 to max for the naval brig.

     

    I will make single commands using  wind from 8 directions in step of 45 degs, (0-45-90.....). Asuming max sails up. and thereafter put them together according to from where tthe wind arrives.

     

    When steady coarse is wanted, the turning is interrupted, autoskipper enabled and rudder neutralized, with another command.

     

    Example of command: Starboard135, meaning turn starboard, present wind direction from 135 degrees (SE).

     

    I lack the max speed regarding 7 wind directions to make (and thereby measure or calculate the time it takes to turn 45 degs from each wind direction.

     

    Heres a link that may show some manouvres and commands (voice) to use, if u dont allready have them :)
